Resumen
FAVATA, Federico; LEONE, Julián y LO CASCIO, Jorge. Youth employment determinants. The Argentine case in 2004-2018. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2022, vol.41, n.87, pp.481-508. Epub 24-Ene-2023. ISSN 0121-4772. https://doi.org/10.15446/cuad.econ.v41n87.90050.
This paper explores the working youth determinants defined among 15 and 30 years for Argentina during the 2004-2018 period. It examines the main individual characteristics that explain the labour income to predict the labour demand requirements. Sectorial issues and types of contracts are included to enlighten the disproportion with adult work. After a working youth description, the real hourly income is estimated with two different approaches. The first one is a typical ordinary least squared methodology, while the second includes a sample adjustment by a Heckman model. It is concluded that, in order to overcome the vulnerability vector of young people, it is necessary to create quality jobs; and to promote the design of public policies for labour market insertion, linked to studies. The greatest challenge lies in the sector of young women with lower incomes, who take on unpaid care work, which reduces their employment and educational opportunities.
